Sniper 2 (2002)
A former Marine sniper is lured back in on a top-secret mission to take out a rogue general who is committing atrocities on the Muslim population. His partner in this mission is a death-row convict who has been given the chance to earn his freedom.
He's good at killing and even better at staying alive.
Thomas Beckett: [to Cole] We're here to put a bullet in a man's head and let God sort it out. You better just pray we get our asses out of this country alive. All your dream shit, stops here.

Billy Zane was too busy on another project to reprise his role as Richard Miller.
Originally premiered on HBO before being released to VHS/DVD.
Is quoted in the movie "People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf." George Orwell
Continuity
In the scene where Cole is in a firefight in the forest, he starts off with an mp5 without a scope and he goes back and forth with an AK-47 with a scope.
After Cole has been shot by the "Scar sniper" he soon appears to have blood coming from his mouth. In subsequent shots, the blood appears and disappears.
Once Cole and Pavel come above ground Cole is to be "on com's" but half the time Cole has his headset on and half the time it's missing.
Factual errors
Wrong language. The Serbians in the movie all speak Hungarian instead of Serbian.
The rifle that Beckett identifies as a German Mauser is actually a Russian Mosin-Nagant M91/30.
Colonel McKenna wears shooting qualification badges under his ribbons, which are never worn with the short-sleeved "C" uniform.
The movie is supposed to take place after Milosevic was overthrown in 2000. At one point in the movie Sophia says that the assassination of Valstoria would prompt the Serbian government to denounce the assassination as a result of a 'UN atrocity'. However, Serbia was readmitted into the UN after Milosevic was overthrown. Serbia, which was the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia at the time, was suspended from the UN because of its support for Serb rebels in the neighboring nations of Croatia and Bosnia, where civil wars occurred in the first half of the 1990's.
In one situation, a tram smashes through a barricade of 2 police cars, causing one of the police cars to explode tremendously. Petrol is not volatile enough to cause a large explosion.
Revealing mistakes
In the scene where Beckett is talking with the CIA agent, when he walks out of the door holding the jug, you can see all of his fingers on his right hand, but his pointer finger is supposed to be missing.
Errors in geography
About 10 minutes into the film, we see a jet landing at, the screen title tells us, "Aviano AFB, Sicily." Except that Aviano AFB is hundreds of miles away in NE Italy.
